Applied online through campus career center. Got contacted for a phone interview. Interviewer asked two simple questions which I answered correctly. I had to dictate the code to him over the phone. He then asked me why I wanted to work there and if I had any questions about the company.

Application

I applied through a recruiter. The process took 5 days – interviewed at Bloomberg L.P..

Interview

Met them at student career fair. Dropped my resume, spoke with the HR team, nothing technical. Got a call 3 days later, requesting and interview session. First interview: 2 young men, pretty smart and friendly (just want I like). 2 Technical question, - reversing a singly linked list, and another question on people trying to cross a bridge. Personally, I'll advice you, they are NOT out to trap you or trick you, they just want to see if you get it. I couldn't answer any of the questions in C++, but I got their explanation and proved it to them :). Second interview was with HR and a Manager. Manager was seriously cool. I like him and and I guess vice versa. We exchanged contacts, and 3 days later, I got the offer. Interview with manager was more like introducing me to Bloomberg, and showing me super cool stuffs :) Then 1 technical question (open ended) at the end (I got that one right though - it was not all luck). Question: how will you transfer Kind James Bible from point A to B most Efficiently.

Interview Questions

All questions were pretty straight forward... you better know C++ or any similar language though ;) 2 Answers

Negotiation

Well, It was mainly talking to the HR. :) They tell you all they want to give you, and they do not expect and answer from you right away... I liked the offer, so I took it. :D

Software Engineer Intern Interview

I applied through college or university. The process took 1 day – interviewed at Bloomberg L.P. (New York, NY) in January 2012.

Interview

there are two rounds, and the first one is 1 to 1 interview, and HR just asked some basic programming questions, like how to reverse a string, and also asked some about my projects. For the next round, two HRs asked me about the programming knowledge again, and also tested me about how to reverse an integer. The interesting thing is that there was a logic puzzle for me. I was kinda stessed out at that time so that I was kind stuck on this problem. I was notified not to get that intern a few days later by E-mail.

Where are stored dynamically allocated vrs? pass by value / pass by refference what is "This" or "self" ? Design patterns, where to use them
